In 2019, many respondents in Poland perceived Halloween as a purely entertaining event, but the flaws of the holiday were also noticed. For most Poles, Halloween was a strictly commercial day. Respondents noticed that this was another opportunity for shops and brands to increase their sales. Some Poles were of the opinion Halloween should not be celebrated. According to them, celebrating domestic traditions connected with All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day should be much more crucial.
